my vote would be against moderating. I would rather put up with some flak messages and know that I'm seeing what everyone has to think than to have some posts cut out without the chance to read them (I know I can access them through this killserv method, but I'd rather not kill my quota doing it). I think the biggest problem with the unmoderated version was the large number of posts calling other posts irrelevant or offensive... if something is inappropriate, don't flatter it with response. The issue seems similar to the cinematic world. I would rather see 4 bad films for every good one if that means I know every filmmaker is getting a chance to express her ideas. denis
